Hey all. It's seven days to Christmas, so I think it's time to wish a very merry christmas from Finland to all Y-blockers around the world.



What kind of a future plans do you have for the year 2009? Progress in projects, Good luck in parts collecting, Victories in racing or what? It's almost time to make some new year promises and here is mine. I'll try to keep you not bored behind the computer BigGrin.



And here is some fresh visions of the future...



The another day I stumbled to pair of Eatons at my work. So what to do with them? Maybe I'll add one of them on top of our old reliable test engine w00t.











Well.... but cause I now have two of them, so why not use both of them BigGrin...







Hmmmm... that might be a little challenging with the belt drive.



Ok, today I spotted four more turbos at my work, so why not use them with our existing exhaust manifolds? Some tinkering around them and we are talking about Quadra-Turbo Y-Block w00t...







Yeah... that might even work with some time and patience....







Heh... gimme some more Vodka and I'll stop dreaming....



Merry Christmas and hilarious New Year 2009 to all Wink

How fast do you have to spin that little Eaton to get 2 lbs of boost?  Tongue

Well... it depends of the back pressure. By fingers..... maybe my blood pressure will exceed 2 lbs before I get it turning...Smile

Seppo, as one of the lucky few that has actually been to your home and was a witness to the Hollow Head machine starting for the very first time, I will say that if anybody can pull off what you are mumbling about, it would be you! Us folks in the U.S.A. have it so easy! You build things from scratch that we wouldn't even think of. But then, when you and Jyrki find the cork on the Hollow Head bottle, some very "interesting" thoughts have been known to appear!



Merry Christmas to you and to all! And yes there are some things happening with my 56 Ford powerplant. More on that later...
